Spanish Holiday Sweets

Hello everyone! It feels a bit strange to be writing about Spain while I’m happily enjoying the sunshine in California, but I’m still really excited about this week’s episode of MyBarcelona because it’s all about one of the best parts of the holidays – the food!

Come with me to visit a traditional patisserie in the Gràcia district to find out about three of the tastiest sweet treats you can get in Barcelona around the holidays.

MY great grandparents were both Spanish and I grew up in the Philippines, which was a Spanish colony for centuries and so has considerable Spanish food influence.

I love turron, which is very expensive in the U.S. I also enjoyed those long wafers, which are called “barquillos” in the PI. I can the barquillos in my local Asian store.Steve recently posted…Mikey Gets His Christmas Balikbayan Box
